Car Chase
Ahead of them, Giovani was finding humor and excitement in the pursuit. "They've been chasing me for years," he explained to Jack, whose grip on the "oh-shit handle" was so strong, his knuckles were white. "I love it when they get real close and then I rocket away from them. Crazy bitches."
Jack had so many questions he wanted to ask, but he was afraid, if he opened his mouth, the only thing that would come out was a scream, or vomit. Although, he wasn't quite sure that Vampires were even capable of that second one. The faster they went, the closer they got to the other vehicles around them, t

The Clandestine Saga Long Time Ago
As she drove, Laura reflected on what had brought her to this pursuit in the first place. It had been a botched job, one that had cost her more than she could bear to think about. The team had approached the club that night convinced of their ability to successfully take out two Vampires, one so old she was almost an ancient, the other her relatively fresh spawn, already causing havoc even in his first few years of life. Over the years, she had rehashed the scenario time and again, never quite sure what had made her act the way she did. She had clearly and emphatically disobeyed orders. She had argued with the Guardian Leader. She had cost her team a major kill, and allowed two Vampires to walk right by her undetected. All because she thought she was right, and she was more concerned with winnin
The Clandestine Saga On the Road Again
Cadence had been easily convinced that she had time for a quick nap. And by the time she had finally dozed off, it really wasn't a very long one. Now, sitting in the passenger seat of the Buick Enclave Elliott had somehow managed to procure, the internal debate raged; should she attempt to converse with the burly Guardian or keep her mouth shut? She was well aware that Elliott was not a fan of hers. In fact, the thought that this was all a setup had crossed her mind several times. Nevertheless, she had gone along with it, not as a chump, but confident in her ability to defeat any bloodsucker that came her way.
The Clandestine Saga Not What He Was Expecting
Before the Enclave even came to a full stop, Cadence was out of it, her eyes covering the fence as rapidly as a cheetah stalking its prey. By the time Elliott caught up to her, she had already found what she considered to be the weakest point and was scaling the structure, almost to the top."What are you doing?" he called from below her, unable to believe how quickly she had surveyed the situation and started to move.
The Clandestine Saga Musty Monster
In case she needed both hands, Cadence shoved the Glock into the front of her pants. She was vaguely aware that Elliott was talking to her on the IAC, but she tuned him out, only listening for key words, such as "run" or "get down." Whatever he was saying, it could wait. Grabbing ahold of the doorknob with both hands, she gave it a quick jerk while simultaneously thrusting her entire body through the small opening she made with the door, flinging it shut behind her. Upon realizing there was no audible alarm, she took a deep sigh of relief. Either she had triggered something her ears could not detect, or she had actually been fast enough not to set off any alarm.
The Clandestine Saga Time to Give Up
Laura and Laney had driven up and down the same few streets hundreds of times over the last few weeks, constantly looking for the elusive black Corvette Giovani was known to wheel around town. They only knew that he was staying somewhere in the area because they had caught a glimpse of him peeling out once, several weeks ago, followed shortly thereafter by an incident where they had trailed him into the area, only to be found out and led on a high-speed chase across town, ending with a smashed-up fender on Laura's Charger. The paint job had not been spectacular, and each time she caught a glimpse, it made Laura's blood boil all over again. It was yet another reminder of how close she had been to finally ending this weary, exhaustive search.
The Clandestine Saga New Respect
The Enclave was still parked where they had left it, which shouldn't have been surprising to Cadence, but returning from a hunt was always a bit like waking from a dream, and it took her a bit to get her bearings. She wouldn't have been too surprised to see that it had been carried off by dragons.Elliott pulled the door open for her politely, and she slid into the passenger seat. "When does that no-longer-need-to-sleep phase kick in?" she asked, reaching back and pulling the seatbelt across her lap as Elliott shut the door behind her.
The Clandestine Saga Gotta Know
Eliza had stayed off of IAC as long as she could, but after Elliott and Cadence had been gone for a couple of hours, she began to realize something had to have gone amiss. Either Elliott hadn't been able to keep her in the car, or he had intentionally set her up to go after Barbarosa. As much as she didn't want to see Cadence get hurt, she was just a bit curious to see what would happen when the superhuman Vampire Hunter went up against the seasoned bloodsucker.Hannah had mentioned contacting Aaron and letting him alert whoever was in the area to offer backup. But Eliza was pretty sure she ha
The Clandestine Saga Burning
Jack shot straight up in bed, the intense burning in his throat almost more than he could bear. He looked around the room, only vaguely remembering where he was and what had happened to him. It was still dark outside, and glancing at the clock, he could see that it was only 5:15 AM. He remembered Giovani saying that older Vampires rarely slept, so he was hopeful that his brother would be available to tell him what to do about this condition. Pulling on his crumpled jeans from the floor and a T-shirt, he went out to investigate.Giovani was sitting on the couch, game controller in hand, steerin
